- default y
- help
- Some versions of the PPC601 (the first PowerPC chip) have bugs which
- mean that extra synchronization instructions are required near
- certain instructions, typically those that make major changes to the
- CPU state. These extra instructions reduce performance slightly.
- If you say N here, these extra instructions will not be included,
- resulting in a kernel which will run faster but may not run at all
- on some systems with the PPC601 chip.
